Painting an Autumn Tree - Digital Art for Beginners

This is an easy follow-along art course with clear explanations of what to do at all times.

In this course you will learn how to paint a beautiful tree in autumn with a digital drawing software of your choice (for example Procreate, Photoshop, Krita). I'll be using Krita, which is a completely free drawing software. Here's how to use it.

We will create a painting with only brushes and layers, which means you can do this with any software that has those functions! Brushes and layers are the core of digital art so you should be very comfortable with using them. The project that we'll create in this course will help you with that.

You will learn a simple technique for drawing an autumn tree and the process can be applied to other types of trees, too. So it's very good practice if you're starting out with digital art and want to create good looking landscapes.

Trees are an important part of many artworks' backgrounds and it makes sense to practice drawing/painting them. They're very beginner-friendly but with huge potential for improvement.

In Illustration, graphic design, landscape painting, trees are everywhere! And some of my favorite subjects for digital painting.

What we'll cover:

- sketching the tree

- painting the tree trunk and branches

- adding foliage

- painting the tree's details

- painting detailed leaves

- adding highlights and shadows

- painting the background and sky

What you need:

- digital art software with brushes and layers

- a way to paint digitally (iPad, drawing tablet)

And this is pretty much it.

Have fun!
